A propos de l'age de la serie ophiolitique dans les Dinarides yougoslaves; la coupe de Mihajlovici aux confins de la Serbie et du Montenegro (region de Plevlja, Yougoslavie)

Abstract

The Mihajlovici area in southwestern Yugoslavia is a mosaic of fault blocks produced by two sets of large faults, trending NW and NE. The horsts are lower Jurassic limestone, and the grabens are occupied by diabase-radiolarite, known as the ophiolitic series, of lower Malm age (upper Jurassic). Abundant ammonites and microfauna identify several horizons, notably the Toarcian (upper Lias, i.e., lower Jurassic) and the uppermost bed of the lower Malm, thus fixing the Malm age of the ophiolitic series.
